What should be done about bleeding in the spinal canal due to spinal cord injury?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which is greatly affecting my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. How should I handle bleeding in the spinal canal due to spinal cord injury?

Doctor's answer:

The spinal cord is part of the central nervous system, so if the spinal cord is injured, it is essential to visit a Grade III-A hospital and consult an orthopedic surgeon promptly. Treatment should be provided as early as possible based on the specific condition. If surgery is possible, it is recommended to undergo surgical treatment as soon as possible to prevent other complications. At the same time, absolute bed rest is required, and a hard board bed should be used. For those who cannot undergo surgery, acupuncture, moxibustion, and physical therapy should be adopted to as much as possible restore nerve function.
